The Cloudleaf Visibility Index™ captures real-time product flow data
within and between facilities. Cloudleaf estimates that most enterprises
have only 20% visibility into their supply chains, as opposed to the
70-90% level needed to address key points of volatility where revenue
and costs are at risk.

The company’s cloud-based solutions pull data from the Edge to ensure a
70%-90% Cloudleaf Visibility Index™ target is achieved. The dramatically
greater visibility empowers supply chain managers to make rapid
improvements in anomaly detection, predictive maintenance and a host of
other areas that enhance reliability.

The technology innovator introduced the Cloudleaf Visibility Index™
during the Gartner Supply Chain Executive Conference in Phoenix, the
world’s pre-eminent gathering of supply-chain professionals. Cloudleaf
Chief Executive Officer Mahesh Veerina maintained that the new gauge may
serve as a benchmark for supply chains in all industries.

The Cloudleaf Visibility Index™ is defined as the number of points in
the end-to-end supply chain where product location and condition data
are captured in real time as a percentage of the total number of
opportunities where data could be captured. The Index is detailed in a
White Paper issued today by Cloudleaf. The White Paper, entitled, What
is the Visibility Index of Your Supply Chain?, is available at https://www.cloudleaf.com/download/cloudleaf-visibility-index-paper/.

The genesis of the index came from the company’s customers, said Mr.
Veerina.

The innovative approach also drew praise from one of the world’s leading
supply-chain experts, Professor Hau L. Lee, the Thoma Professor of
Operations, Information and Technology at the Stanford Graduate School
of Business.

“Today’s always-on IoT sensing capabilities can deliver enormous value,
but only if companies make sense out of what they sense,” Professor Lee
said. “Turning vast quantities of data into useful intelligence is a
multi-faceted challenge. The Cloudleaf solution is now a supply
chain-specific application set designed to do that. They draw on an IoT
sensor network to deliver visibility in the context of the end-to-end
supply chain. Selecting and instrumenting key points to feed into such a
system enables sensible sensing.”
